Chapter 798
Meredith had put it so seriously and sincerely. It was clear to please him. Although Charlie was moved by it, he could not hear her intentions.
He turned around and looked at her. He asked, “Meredith, do you love me?”
“Of course, if not why would I marry you?” “Isn’t it because I have helped you a lot and pursued you for a long time?” “Of course, not.” Meredith shook her head. She held his hand. “Charlie, why would you have such thoughts? If I don’t love you yet marry you, this isn’t repaying you. This is biting the hand that fed me, you understand?”
“I don’t,” Charlie said.
“Marriage is a matter of a lifetime. If I don’t love you yet marry you, this is an irresponsible way of doing things. I won’t be so selfish.” Charlie looked at her. His eyes reddened a little. “Since I have fallen in love with you and married you, I will never leave you for the rest of my life. Unless you fall in love with another woman like Josiah.” Meredith squeezed his hand tightly. “So, please don’t chase me away again. Let me stay with you, please?” Charlie looked at her for a long time before finally nodding his head. Meredith let out a sigh of relief. Her eyes reddened too. She said, “Charlie, you finally thought it through. You no longer chase me away. I thought that I was going to be kicked out today.”
Although Charlie nodded, he was still a little worried.
“Meredith, don’t lie to me.”
“Lie to you about what?”
“Lie to me that you love me.” “How could I lie to you?” Meredith ruffled his hair, then she immediately apologized, “Oh, I’m sorry. I forgot that our Charlie doesn’t like people ruffling his hair.”
Charlie smiled but with a tinge of sadness.
Meredith poured the oatmeal porridge she brought over. She said while pouring, “I woke up early to cook for you and Nia. You have to eat more.”
Charlie looked at the oatmeal porridge in his bowl before looking at her again.
